Parents and Guardians, Thank you to those who have completed the Information for Remote Learning Survey. If you have not already done so, please take the time to complete the information. FISD is using Google Classroom as a means to provide instruction to your child during this time. Students in grades 5-12 have a gmail address provided by the school. However, students in PK-4th grade do not have gmail addresses. In order to accept the invite to Google Classroom, you must provide a gmail address. It is absolutely free to create an account. Just go to www.gmail.com. Once you have completed the Information for Remote Learning Survey, your child’s teacher will send you an invite for Google Classroom.

Parents and Guardians, Floydada ISD is committed to ensuring your child receives a quality education under the conditions created by COVID-19. Our teachers are using Google Classroom as a means to communicate and help your student continue to learn. Your child’s teacher will send a link via the email you entered on the Remote Learning Survey. When you click on the link, you will be prompted to join their classroom. You will need a gmail email to access Google Classroom. Students in grades 5-12 have an account through the school. Parents who have children in PreK-4th grade will need to create an account. It is completely free to create an email account with gmail. Just go to www.gmail.com and create your account. We look forward to partnering with you in your child’s education!

We started our meal delivery service to students’ homes today. We are thankful to all the wonderful staff who went above and beyond to make this possible. We are here to serve our kids! We delivered over 450 meals! #FISD #ALLinEveryDay

Student Meal Deliveries will begin tomorrow (3-24-2020). Breakfast and lunch will be delivered together between 8:00 am and 9:15 am. It would help greatly if an adult or older student can meet FISD staff in your yard when the bus arrives. Please be patient as we launch this service. We hope to make it as efficient as possible. Thanks for your support.
